Jay-Z Leads Off for the Yankees at World Series
New York's most valuable player? With all due respect to Derek Jeter, we're going with Jay-Z for trying to psych out the Phillies with a performance totally supportive of the home team.
The Yankees lost Game 1 of the World Series, so what better way to rouse the team than Hova's single "Empire State of Mind" featuring Alicia Keys. One of the best songs on The Blueprint 3, it's as iconic as Frank Sinatra's version of "New York, New York."
Seriously, with an opening act like him, the Yankees have no excuses for losing (not that they had one anyway with their expensive roster).
Even with bad sound we're pretty sure Jay-Z was happy to stick it to the Phillies. Which is probably why he didn't do "Run This Town" instead.
